FOURTH-YEAR ELECTIVES For the session of 1914-15 the last semester of the fourth year has been set aside for electives. A minimum of 560 hours is demanded. Electives are arranged as double-courses, single-courses, half-courses, and quarter-courses. A double-course occupies the entire day for one month or forenoons or afternoons for two months, and has a value of 140 hours. A single-course occupies a half day for one month and has a value of 70 hours. A half-course occupies two hours per week and has a value of 32 hours, and a quarter-course occupies one hour per week and has a value of 16 hours per semester. Students wishing to specialize in any major branch of medical study may elect more than one of the courses offered in a given subject, but no student will be allowed to devote his whole elective period to one subject without special permission of the Executive Committee of the Faculty and the consent of the head of the department concerned. Students electing research work which necessarily is prolonged beyond the time designated for that subject, will be permitted to finish it provided the time required does not extend beyond the semester. The permission of the Executive Committee of the Faculty will be necessary to carry out this arrangement. The final choice of electives must be left at the secretary's office on or before December 1, 1914. No changes will be allowed after the final arrangement is made. The time alloted for electives, together with the schedule thereof, must be determined by the Secretary of the Faculty, and the Faculty reserves the right to make any changes deemed necessary in the selection and arrangement of the courses chosen by the student. Examinations will be held at the end of each course, for the most part practical, and the grade assigned to each student will be sent to the secretary's office as soon as the course has terminated. The value of the courses, as stated above, when elected in anatomy, physiology, and pathology and bacteriology, must depend on arrangement with the heads of the departments concerned. ANATOMY 109.
